CAN Lab Graduate
Nila graduated with a PhD in Developmental Psychology in 2021 under the supervision of Dr. Elisabeth Conradt. She is currently a postdoctoral fellow under Dr. Nicholas J. Wagner at Boston University. In her research, she is primarily interested in understanding how early life experiences shape the functioning of immune and stress response systems and related behavioral profiles. Her second line of research focuses on understanding the psychophysiological mechanisms underlying individual differences in susceptibility to environmental influences, and how they moderate the effects of various environmental conditions on children’s health and developmental outcomes (Differential Susceptibility Theory).
